Rheology of Particulate Dispersions and Composites

By Rajinder Pal

This book demonstrates how understanding rheological behavior is crucial to process design and materials development for a wide variety of commercial and industrial applications. It examines the principles and equations that govern the rheology of particulate dispersions and of two-phase solid composites. The author introduces definitions and important concepts such as fluid/interfacial mechanics, bulk stress, and dipole strength. Then he analyzes the rheology of dispersions for rigid and nonrigid particles. The final chapters address elastic properties of particle- and fiber-reinforced solid composites and discuss the dynamic viscoelastic behavior of particulate dispersions and composites.
